On-screen text
Jealousy shows you what you're afraid to lose,
and envy shows you what you deeply desire.
Anger shows you where you feel violated or powerless.
And anxiety shows you where you crave certainty or control.
Our emotions are messengers.
Even the bad ones can be incredibly powerful and helpful
if we actually learn and listen to what they actually mean.
We don't need to push them away.
We don't need to immediately react to them,
but rather slow down, really figure out what they're trying to tell us,
what it means according to our external surroundings,
and then do your best based off of that.
